E2500 Router Bridge Mode Help

Ok I am in a weird situation. I was recently robbed and had multiple things stolen. I have found out that if I locate MAC addresses for these items there is a high chance that some of my stolen items can be recovered when they are connected to the internet elsewhere.

My problem right now is that I have a modem with a Cisco E2500 router connected to it. I need to access the browser utility page to access the info needed for these MAC addresses. I have tried almost every default IP that I can find but no luck getting to the browser utility. So I have come to the conclusion that it is in bridge mode. The weird thing is that I would NEVER put my router into bridge mode. I like to play around with the settings every once in awhile to change wifi names or passwords for security purposes.

Lastly, Cisco connect of course will not work with my OSX 10.10 operating system so I have absolutely no way of accessing any setting whatsoever.

My question is, is there any way possible to disable bridge mode without completely resetting the device? Which of course this will erase the data I'm looking for.

I'm sorry for your loss but you have also been misinformed. The mac address never leaves the lan. In other words it never reaches the internet.

Concerning your router. Post the results of a ipconfig /all when connected to the router for us to review.
